Background
Capadenoson is a selective agonist of Adenosine A1 receptor [1].
Adenosine A1 receptor is a member of G-protein coupled receptor 1 family and plays an important role in the fertilization process, kidney function and ethanol intoxication. Many studies have shown that Adenosine A1 receptor is correlated with a variety of diseases, like angina, heart failure, and its agonist is becoming a promising target in clinic [1].
Capadenoson is a potent Adenosine A1 receptor agonist and belongs to the non-nucleosidic adenosine receptor family. When tested with perfused rat hearts isolated from Wista and SHR strains, capadenoson combined with CCPA treatment significantly decreased NE release in a dose-dependent manner [1].
In dog model with heart failure induced by microembolization, oral administration of capadenoson for 12 weeks improved left ventricular function and prevented progressive remodeling [2]. When pre-treated Wistar rats with capadenoson (0.15 mg/kg) for 5 days, physical restraint for 2 hours increased heart rate [1].
When tested with male patients with stable angina, oral administration of capadenoson lowered exercise heart failure at comparable maximum workload [3].

Protocol
Kinase experiment: | Membranes from the human cortex are prepared. [35S]GTPγS binding is measured. Briefly, 5 μg of membrane protein is incubated in a total volume of 160 μL for 2 hr at 25°C in a shaking water bath. [35S]GTPγS binding in control incubations and in the presence of capadenoson showed a linear time course up to this incubation time. Binding buffer contained 50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.4, 2 mM triethanolamine, 1 mM EDTA, 5 mM MgCl2, 10 μM GDP, 1 mM dithiothreitol, 100 mM NaCl, 0.2 units/mL adenosine deaminase, 0.2 nM [35S]GTPγS, and 0.5% bovine serum albumin. Non-specific binding is determined in the presence of 10 μM GTPγS. Incubations are terminated through filtration of the samples over multiscreen FB glass fiber filters followed by two washes with binding buffer. The filters are dried, coated with scintillator and counted for radioactivity. Binding curves of [35S]GTPγS are analyzed by nonlinear regression using GraphPad Prism[1]. |
Animal experiment: | Rats[1] A total of 14 Wistar rats and 18 SHR (body weight 200-50 g, all female) underwent experiments to evaluate the exocytotic, stimulation-induced NE release during electrical field stimulation. Rats are killed by an injection of pentobarbital i.p. (0.5 mL/100 mg body weight), and hearts are rapidly excised, and placed in ice cold Krebs-Henseleit solution (KHL). They are quickly mounted on a Langendorff apparatus for retrograde perfusion with KHL. Perfusion rate is kept constant at 10 mL/min, the temperature is adjusted to 37°C, and the pH to 7.4 through bubbling with 5% CO2/95% O2. Via an inflow line desipramine at a concentration of 10?7 M is added to the perfusion buffer. After an equilibration period of 20 minutes, electrical field stimulation is commenced via two metal paddles adjacent to both sides of the beating heart for 1 minute (5V, 6 Hz). We collected the efflux in plastic tubes the minute before, during, and 3 minutes after the stimulation. These are rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at ?20°C till analysis. The NE release is calculated as the cumulative release induced by the electrical stimulation. After the first stimulation (S1), the study drug Capadenoson at concentrations of 30 μg/L (6×10?8 M) or 300 μg/L(6×10?7 M), or 2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA, 10?6 M), respectively, are added via separate perfusion lines for 30 minutes. After this time a second stimulation (S2) is executed to determine the effect of the drugs on NE release compared to the first stimulation. The effect of each pharmacological intervention is analysed by calculating the ratio of NE release induced by the second and first stimulation (S2/S1 ratio). |
